You're just like plasticine

Being moulded into a libertine dream

I feel so sorry for you

My heart goes out to you

If you were thirteen I'd let you off

But you're not and you should know better

Gather my thoughts on a

Notepad with a Parker pen

And write you a letter but

There's not enough paper in the world

There's not enough paper in the world

Oh have you heard all your friends go

Da da da da da da da oh

All the words they seem to know

All the words in your sons go

Da da da da da da da oh

You got an okay jacket

But you've got no spine

Please vacate this city of mine

I only wish you had this song

To back-up you're talking to long

But we know that's not the case

Rather show your face

In an injured bar I know but it goes in

Because they serve substandard gin

Nobody goes in there did you win?

Did they ask though no-one cares?

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

All the words they seem to know

All the words in your sons go

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

You got an okay jacket

But you've got no spine

Please vacate this city of mine

You're just like plasticine

Being molded into a libertine dreamer

I feel so sorry for you

If you were 13 I would let you off

But your not and you should have known better

Gather my thoughts on a notepad

With a parker pen

And write you a letter but

Theres not enough paper in the world

Theres not enough paper in

Oh have you heard

Your friends they go

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

Dadada dadadaaaa oh

You got an ok jacket

But you've got no spine

Please vacate this city of mine

You got an ok jacket

But you've got no spine

Please vacate this city of mine
